Pros

None, the training used to be (past tensed) one of the redeeming values. Branch Manager will hire outside "coaches" for managers.

Cons

Management, office culture, inadquate training, cold calling (in 2022!), constant push to be out of compliance with OCI standards, nepotism, push for "FA" referral to individuals who are absolutely not up to the task. Constant lying to new agents. Multi-level marketing scheme instead of agent development. The "coaches" that are hired push positivity cult rather than actual results, as these coaches offer an out to actual accountability.

Pros

Bankers provides award winning training, an elaborate product portfolio and a rapidly growing market. They leverage cutting edge technology: contact and LEAD management, electronic business submission, an incredible proprietary mobile application. I have 11 companies I can be appointed with - making sure my clients get the best program for what they NEED. A great opportunity to receive great training, work with great people and make a great living, all for helping people.

Cons

This opportunity is just that, an opportunity. Those who don't take advantage of it won't think it is a good one. Even successful people deal with a ton of rejection, thick skin is needed. With a 40% closing ratio, I still hear "No" more than "Yes".
